LAWTON'S CREDITORS.
A Belief That Some Will Be Paid the
Full Amount of Their Claims.


Full Amount of Their Claims.
NEW YORK, April 23.-The Commercial
Advertiser says: "The feeling seems to
grow among those familiar with the Walter
E. Lawton case that creditors holding paper
against the missing guano dealer which has
the Endorsement of the Navassa Phos-
plate Company will be paid, pro-
vided the debtors are not forced to
litigation. Lawton was President of
the Navassa Company, which has paid
large dividends. Its stockholders are mainly
in New York and Providence. The CON
Germ is responsible for about $150,000 of
Lawton's paper. The men at the head Of
the Southern corporations, which are closely
related to the Navassa Company, are per
sons of standing, and it is thought they will
not jeopardize their business interests by
going to law to fight the payment of no
greater amount than that mentioned above
Creditors holding their paper are accord
ingly pleased No tidings have been had
of Lawton since he vanished from tue city"

SAVAGE AND wARLIKE.

They constitute the most savage and war
like portion of the Comanches. All those
who are not under the immediate control of
the Half Breed Chief Quanah Parker have
from the first been opposed to the leasing OF
their lands to the white cattlemen. The
immediate cause of the killing was re
fusal on the part of the whites to supply the
Indians with beef according to their de
mands, but it is evident from what can be
learned that this was only Matched up as q
plausible excuse for firing the first shots in
the long contemplated war against their

INDIANS ON THE WARPATH.

Begin to Massacre.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-A special from
Quanah, Tex, says: Intelligence that the
Kiowa and Comanche Indians are on the
warpath, and that prominent cattle man
named w. A. Stinson and one of his
employees were murdered by them in Green
county, near the Navajo mountains, has
created excitement throughout this and the
neighboring north border counties. SO far
as can be learned the killing Of Stinson and
his man is only the beginning of general
outbreak, contemplated for some time by
that part of the Comanche tribe known as
the ''anti-lease faction" to which fully half,
if not considerable majority of the tribe
belongs.

BORDER BANDITS.
What Is Necessary to Briug About
Their determination.

In speaking of the banditti on the
lower Rio Grande the Brownsville COSmO-
potita,a says The action Of The Fcdc-
yocjon, a paper published i'll Victoria
and in active partisanship OF the State
government, can hardly be endorsed,
and We trust that its uttcrances do not
express the sentiments of its party. 1t
seems TO us. TO say the least, very bad
taste for political paper to even covert
w uphold the cause of banditti, even in
the heat of political discussion, and to
attack the military authorities in this
section for using every effort to main
tain law and order on the frontier. 1t
seems TO us worse taste to champion the
cause of the noted bandit and muir
derer, Lorenzo Vela, on whose head
the price of 81, 800 is set the day he is
delivered in any Jail in Texas, and who
should consider immurement IN the
fortress of San Juan de UlOa light pun
ishment for his crimes. But paper
docs not make a party, and we trust to
see the State authorities standing Shout
der to shoulder with the military to put
down banditage and secure law and order
on the frontier, 50 much the advantage
OF every citizen and every ranch-owner
in the State of Tamaulipas. On the
American side of the border there is no
question, for the authorities-S
county, and Federal-the residents Of
towns and every ranch-Owner along the
border see that their own safety, the
necessities of the country, and IT'S future
prosperity demand the utter eXter
mination Of the bandit element on
the frontier The only question is
how it is to be done Here is just the
trouble. A sheriff starts out to hunt
down party of bandits; he stops to
secure party OF rancheros to add to his
force, the matter becomes bruited about.
In every ranch or neighborhood there is
some dissolute character. some horse
thief, some secret agent OF the bandits,
perhaps, who starts out and gives the
quarry timely warning to divide and
escape in the chapparel. or to boldly
enter some banco, where they know the
officers cannot follow, or to as boldly
cross the river and escape arrest. These
bandits operate in bands of ten, fifteen,
or twenty, sometimes forty or fifty men.
TO defeat them needs Il superior force.
To surround and capture, one vastly
larger. Where is this to be found
easiest ? Why, in the garrisoDs of
United States troops along the Dor
der. who by act of Congress should be
permitted to aid the border sherfis when
their services may be needed to operate
against large bands of marauders. Let
the two republics open them to the Off
GERS of both nations, so that they may
be entered at will, searched, and crimi
mails be arrested therein. And, lastly.
reform of the extradtion laws, so as not
TO allow criminals 10 escape under the
lamest pretences. the myriad bubbles

claim to be either Mexican or American

PErERsBuRG, November 20, 1887.
The knights Templars' banquet last
night is acknowledged by those who
were present 10 have been one OF the
most elegant and rochorcAC affairs OF the
kind ever known in Petersburg. The
presence OF so many ladies was re-
straining influence as well rs an interest
ing feature of the occasion. Many OF
The ladies appeared in full-dress costume,
II was understood beforehand that there
were to be no toasts or speaking, but the
temptation could not be resisted at late
hour, when champagne was brought
upon the tables, to call out Colonel
Thomas J. Evans, OF Richmond, for
little talk. The right man was evidently
called upon. His remarks were witty,
humorous, and eloquent, and proved a
veritlble dessert after so ineny courses
Of edibles. Order and system marked
the course of all the movements from
the moment OF entering the church to
engage in the Thanksgiving services to
the close of the banquet exercises, and
the occasion will long be remembered
as one of pleasure and enjoyment.
A meeting of confederate veto
rams was held last night at the court
house to take steps toward the organizl-
ton of & veteran organization. Tonight
meeting was held at the same place for
tho purpose of organizing Confederate
camp. Suitable steps were taken at each
for the accomplishment of their rcspec-
tive objects. Though distinct they will
not conflict with each other, and all the
Confederate veterans of good record will
unite i'll forming the camp.
Mr. Everett I. Clark, one OF the best
printers in this city, was stricken with
paralysis night before last, and his con-

continued case Of G. W. Semple, charged
with passing counterfeit money, WAS
called. The accused failed to put in an
appearance, his bond was declared for
ieited, and the matter was certified to

to be in Canada, whittier he fed to es-
cape trial, expressing the belief that he
could not obtain fairand Just trial here.
The penalty OF bis bond was 5000.
